HTEA CAFE - Troy (MI)

5 /5 JL (BeyondBookends): Pretty authentic Taiwanese dishes and bubble teas in a fast casual setting (most dishes were disposable). You can order at counter or via kiosk but everything took a while to arrive. Dishes were tasty though and unbelievably affordable (noodles without protein were about $7 and most dishes with protein were $10-15 range) and you can get a combo meal that comes with a drink. Will go back again and try the Taiwanese popcorn chicken and other noodles/rice bowls. If you are a manga fan there are manga you can read while you wait for your food!

5 /5 Jon Lynch: Clique spot that I stopped by at because a friend keeps posting about their teas. Nicely decorated interior, clean, comfortable, not too loud. I had the strawberry matcha which was delicious. I came hungry because the menu has a lot of options all great portions with a very fair price point I had the pork bao with soy dipping. Peanut noodles, and fried chicken with sweet chili dipping. These were all very good.

5 /5 pixellove13: Pictured is Strawberry Matcha, Oreo Matcha w/ Brown Sugar Boba, Chocolate Tiramisu, Pork Xiao Long Bao, Shredded Beef & Pepper Rice Bowl and Spring Rolls This place has such a cute and welcoming atmosphere, with both self-service kiosks and a traditional register for convenience. The menu offers a great variety of options, and everything I tried was delicious. The matcha was especially impressive it tasted authentic and not store-bought. On top of that, the staff were incredibly friendly and made the experience even better. Definitely a spot worth visiting!

5 /5 Brandon Slaughter: Specialty tea shop with hot food, abundant seating, intriguing decor, books, hot food and a relaxed vibe. Get together with friends or enjoy some alone time, the environment is quiet but flexible. With a range of drinks and food to offer, we found ourselves lounging longer than expected. Although its counter service, the staff will bring your drink and food to you. There is an area to dispose your garbage and turn in your bamboo tray. They are vegan and vegetarian friendly!

2 /5 Odria Lin: We were excited to try this place. The store was clean, menu looks great, kiosk is easy enough to navigate. Until after the order was placed, one of the staff told us that they are out of the protein for the spicy chicken noodle(紅油雞絲麵）so we agreed to swap the chicken to shrimp, confirming that only the protein will be swapped, which means we were expecting spicy shrimp noodle of some sort. when the order arrived, we were all confused, we got served a shrimp noodle soup. When we went to confirm with a staff, the staff is giving a bit of attitude telling that this is what we ordered. Clearly this is not what we ordered. We would wish that if certain item is not available, just simple edit your kiosk portal to not allow customer order that item. And also provide a better customer service by explaining what might had happened instead of blaming it was us, the customer, who placed the shrimp noodle soup. The sticker on the bowl stated what we ordered- spicy chicken noodle. Other than the bad customer service experience, the food was not bad, boba tastes pretty good.
